Slow Healing

The vitae in your veins is sluggish, and your control over your blood is imperfect at best. Although you are capable of forcing this blood to coalesce into your flesh and heal your wounds, you do so with great difficulty. You must spend an additional point of Blood anytime you wish to heal a point of damage. This penalty applies when you use Blood points to heal yourself, but does not penalize your use of healing powers on other characters through the use of powers such as Blood Rage from the Path of Blood.
